The Girls of Steel Robotics Team actively fundraises throughout the year in order to meet our expenses.   Any amount you can provide will help! 

FUNDRAISING

Sarris Candies Fundraiser

Our Fall 2024 Crowdfunding Campaign at CMU!

Our 2024 crowdfunding campaign is over! This year we raised $2,878 from over fifty amazing donors! The funds raised will help us with purchasing robot parts for the upcoming FIRST Robotics Competition season which kicks off on January 4, 2025.    Additional contributions can be made here!

Contact us at finance@girlsofsteelrobotics.org if you have any questions about the team or about making a donation.  We are grateful for donors like you who helped support our program.

Thank you!

Becoming a Sponsor

If you or your company is interested in becoming an official sponsor for our team, and would like some more information about what your donation would entail, please email finance@girlsofsteelrobotics.org and our student Finance Leader or a mentor will get back to you promptly.

Other ways you can help

We always have expenses related to building the robot for competition and running outreach. For example a roboRIO (like the “brain” of the robot) costs us approximately $435, and we used two for the two new updated chassis project workshop kits.   Usually the first FIRST Robotics Competition regional registration fee is $6000 and the fee for the second regional is $3000; we usually attend two regionals per year: The Greater Pittsburgh Regional at a venue in or near Pittsburgh and another competition in Ohio.

In addition to funds for the usual registration fees and robot materials, when we travel to competitions, we need funds for mentor travel, cargo van rental, and more. Again, any amount you are able to provide helps!

Thank you!
